Well, it seems that it's not enough for Bush to thwart personal liberties in the US -- take a look at what our actions in Iraq have led to. As Open Democracy's Lesley Abdela writes):
Insurgents and religious extremists use rape, acid and assassination to force Iraqi women to wear the veil – the symbol of submission, first signal of further repression to come. Many Iraqi women have never worn the scarf. Now, dead bodies of girls and women are found in rivers and on waste ground with a veil tied around the head, as a message.
Thank you, Operation Iraqi Freedom.
